Sorry, I don't know the answer or see it in the source code.

For ACPI questions, you would be better off asking on the
mailing list:  [email protected]

Why do you think that you can write a date/time to /proc/acpi/alarm ?
In the source code it is looking for an integer (like number of seconds
maybe, but again the source code is unclear on it).

Can you test disabling it by writing a 0 to /proc/acpi/alarm ?
